Real Madrid move still on for Athletic Bilbao striker Llorente

Real Madrid remain interested in Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente.

Llorente is regarded highly by Real coach Jose Mourinho, who is still seeking a centre-forward signing to fit into his ideal playing system.

Bilbao directors have insisted Llorente is not for sale, but that could change next week.

Don Balon says with Bilbao's elections held on July 7, should president Fernando García Macua win a new term, he will give the green light for Llorente to be sold to Real for €30 million.
